citizen of the United States,'residing at Brookline, in the county of Norfolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Package-Tiesg and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled inthe art to which'it appertains to make and use the same.

This invention relates to improvements in package ties, and theprimary object of the invention is the provision of a package tie which is constructed of a body portion having a pair of upstanding disks formed thereupon, the necks of which disks form receiving portions for the tying cord, while the heads of the disks securely bindithe tying cordagainst the base and prevent the accidental unfastening of the cord.

With the foregoing and other objects in view this invention consists in such novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and claimed.

In describing the invention in detail reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters of reference designate like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which Figure l is a plan view of the improved package tie showing the same applied to a package, Fig. 2 is a fragmentary bottom plan of a part of said package tie, Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the improved package tie, Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the improved package tie. Referring more particularly to the drawings, 1 designates the package tie as an en-.

tirety, which is constructed of a single length of wire, being coiled upon itself to form enlarged circular gripping bases 2 and 8, which bases are formed at each end and on opposite sides of the connecting bar, the end of the length of wire bent upwardly from the innermost coil of the gripping bases 2 and 3 and are coiled to formgripping disks a and 5, which are connected to and spaced above the gripping bases 2 and 3 by the necks 6.. The necks 6 are formed by the sections of the length of wire extending upwardly from the innermost coils of the gripping bases. When it is desired to bind a package, flexible cord or other suitable tying medium is wound about one of the necks 6, and it is securely held thereabout by the binding engagement between the'base 2 and the disk 4 or the base 3 and the disk 5, after which it is passed about the package in any desired number of times and in any desired way. After the flexible tying member has been suiiiciently wound about the package, it is wound about the opposite neck 6 to the one about which it was originally wound, and the continuous winding or wrapping of the cord about this last neck .will securely hold the cord thereupon, with minor features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts may necessitate alterations to which thepatentee is entitled provided such alterations are comprehended within the scope of what is claimed.

What is claimed is p 1. In a package tie, the combination with a flexible tying element, of a single length of wire coiled at each of its ends to form a base portion and each of its ends bent transversely from said base portion for forming necks, the terminal end of said length of wire being coiled for forming disks which are positioned above said base portion whereby aflexible tying element when wound about said neck will be held against accidental unwinding. 7

2. In combination with a flexible tying element, a package tie formed of a single length of wire, said wire coiled intermediate of its ends to form a base portion and bent transversely from said base portion to form upstanding necks, the terminal ends of said neck being coiled to form disks which are positioned directly above the base portion whereby a flexible tying element 'when' most ends bent upwardly to form necks, the ends of said necks being coiled to form disks,

said; disks positioned directly overfs'aid] lisksfbeing spaced above said bases for fric-j 10 bases, formigg a resilient; and flexible bind- -tionally holding a "cord therebetween. ing clamp for a cqrdwouild about said neck.
